Brisbane, Queensland, Australia The University of Queensland Full time
Project Overview

The project focuses on addressing a critical issue in the commercial deployment of iron flow batteries, which are a promising choice for clean, reliable, and cost-effective long-duration energy storage. The primary obstacle is the low round-trip energy efficiency due to competitive side reactions at the negative electrode during battery charging.

To overcome this challenge, we aim to engineer the negative electrode-electrolyte interface with functional materials, enhancing battery performance and reducing the cost of energy storage.

  • New materials and methods will be developed for advanced battery technology and manufacturing.
Research Environment

This project will be hosted by the Australian Institute for Bioengineering and Nanotechnology (AIBN) at The University of Queensland, an integrated multi-disciplinary research institute.

AIBN brings together world-class researchers from bioengineering and nanotechnology, providing an ideal environment for interdisciplinary collaboration.

Candidates will have full access to state-of-the-art equipment and research facilities required for the successful execution of this project.

Scholarship Details

This is an Earmarked scholarship project that aligns with a recently awarded Australian Government grant.

The scholarship includes:

  • A living stipend of $35,000 per annum tax-free, indexed annually.
  • Single overseas student health cover (OSHC).
